Day 1: Drive from Mekelle to Erta Ale via Afdera
Start early from Mekelle and drive east through the dramatic landscapes of the Danakil Depression. Stop in Afdera for lunch and, if possible, visit Lake Giulietti (Lake Afrera), a salt lake over 100m below sea level, known for its salt flats where Afar people harvest salt traditionally. Continue the drive toward Erta Ale, one of the world’s few active volcanoes with a permanent lava lake. After reaching the base camp, begin a short trek to the rim to witness the glowing lava at sunset. Spend the evening observing this geological wonder. Dinner is served back at base camp around 20:00.
Overnight: Camping at Erta Ale (crater rim or base camp depending on conditions)
